Family Law Done Differently
Joanne and her team are first-rate. Divorce is scary, but I felt 100% informed and cared for during the entire process. They are super fast to reply, thorough with their responses, extremely upfront about everything, and crystal clear. Working with Align Family Law went a long way in bringing some sense of peace of mind and normalcy back to my life.”

Separation
Families come in all shapes and sizes, and the reality is that sometimes families change. During this challenging time, a dedicated, empathetic and skilled family lawyer like those at Align Family Law can make a significant difference in the outcome.
Divorce
At Align Family Law, we use a collaborative approach to help people all around British Columbia minimize the emotional and financial toll of separation and divorce. Our goal is to help you move beyond your separation. Together, we can create a plan for the path forward.
Marriage & Cohabitation Agreements
Our experienced marriage and cohabitation agreement lawyers can help you to negotiate and draft a legally binding agreement that brings you certainty and avoid future disputes.
Agreements
At Align Family Law, we are committed to helping clients reach resolutions through a collaborative approach, and we have years of experience successfully helping people throughout British Columbia chart their path forward.
Negotiation
One of the main tools we use in that approach is negotiation. Our experienced lawyers use a cooperative rather than adversarial approach, working with you and the other side to reach a fair and balanced separation agreement that works for everyone.
Mediation
Through family law mediation, our experienced lawyers can help separating couples resolve their family law disputes, stay out of court, save legal costs and preserve their co-parenting relationship.
Collaborative Family Law
No one wants to be in conflict, but we find that when parties arrive at a settlement of their dispute out of court as opposed to going through a trial, the benefits can be significant.
Litigation
At Align Family Law, we typically aim to resolve separation disputes through collaborative methods like negotiation and mediation. However, sometimes it simply isn’t possible. Our family lawyers aren’t just skilled negotiators, they are dedicated and experienced litigators.
2SLGBTQI+
Whether you’re going through a divorce or ending a common-law marriage, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, two-spirit, and all other individuals who belong to the 2SLGBTQI+ community deserve compassionate and committed legal representation.
Adoption
Raising children is an incredible adventure for any family. At Align Family Law, helping our clients embark on this adventure through adoption is one of our legal team’s favorite parts of the job.
Committeeship
Dealing with a family member or loved one with waning mental capacity is a stressful and difficult situation. Often this takes place in a person’s old age, but injury, illness, and mental health issues can affect a person’s capacity at any point in their life.
